Remarks

Very good paint overall. £1,000 spent last year on completely tidying up all the bodywork. Wheels are near perfect due to recent refurb. The hood works smoothly. It has some stains from age but otherwise in good overall condition with no tears or cracking. The passenger mirror is not working due to to internal motor seizing. It needs to be the powerfold type with ribbon cable connection. I bought another which I fitted and which worked but it was a non folding mirror so I returned it. Available on Ebay for about £150 but I haven't followed it because I'm now selling.
